Laser Printing of Chiral Silicon Nanoprotrusions by Asymmetric Donut-Shaped Femtosecond Pulses

Article Preview

Abstract:

Here, we showed formation of chiral nanoprotrusions upon direct laser ablation of bulk crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafer with single femtosecond (fs) pulses having asymmetric donut-shaped intensity profile. Breaking circular symmetry of the irradiating donut-shaped fs-pulse beam was demonstrated to switch the geometry of formed surface nanoprotrusions from regular to chiral, while the chirality of the obtained Si nanostructures was found to promote with a degree of asymmetry of the laser beam. The obtained experimental results explain, for the first time, the formation of previously reported chiral c-Si nanostructures produced via donut-shaped beam ablation in terms of uneven helical flow of laser-melted Si material caused by asymmetry of initial intensity and temperature pattern on laser-irradiated Si surface. Our findings open a pathway towards easy-to-implement inexpensive fabrication of chiral all-dielectric nanostructures for advanced nanophotonic applications.
